Abstract

The effect of graphene oxide (GO) nanoparticles of 100–200 nm size coated with linear (LP-GO) and branched (BP-GO) polyethylene glycol at concentrations of 5 and 25 μg/mL on the metabolism of Jurkat tumor cells was studied. It was found that LP-GO nanoparticles at a concentration of 25 μg/mL can enhance basal glycolysis of Jurkat T lymphocyte tumor cell line cells, while LP-GO and BP-GO at the same concentration can reduce the indicators of compensatory glycolysis. Despite this, GO nanoparticles coated with linear and branched PEG at a concentration of 5 μg/mL do not have pronounced effects on oxidative phosphorylation and glycolysis of Jurkat cells and could therefore be safe for activated T cells.
